Magnesium Taurate
Capsules and powders are ranked separately: each has its own pick and its own table, and neither is priced against the other.
Capsules, softgels and tablets
Nothing here clears every bar, so there is no pick
A pick has to be independently certified, at the exact package sold where the certifier names packages, and carry no recall or failed test. Where a retailer does not publish a delivery rate, the pick is priced before delivery and says so. Nothing here clears that bar yet. These came closest, with what stopped each one:
Micro Ingredients Magnesium Taurate (240 capsules) $0.406 per 200mg, no independent verification we could locate; delivery cost is not published. Free delivery starts at $59.00, so this order is $37.05 short.
Nutricost Magnesium Taurate (240 capsules) $0.416 per 200mg, no independent verification we could locate; delivery cost is not published. Free delivery starts at $59.00, so this order is $39.03 short.
Double Wood Supplements Magnesium Taurate (210 capsules) $0.475 per 200mg, no independent verification we could locate; delivery cost is not published. Free delivery starts at $30.00, so this order is $10.05 short.
“Delivery cost is not published” usually means the retailer only publishes a free-delivery threshold and no rate below it. Adding anything else to the same order clears it. We cannot price that cart for you, so we show the gap instead of guessing.

About these numbers
What “per dose” means here: 200mg elemental magnesium
The NIH fact sheet gives an adult RDA of 310-420 mg of magnesium, so 200 mg is a little under half of that. It is a round number chosen as a common denominator across salts that carry very different amounts of magnesium per gram. It is a unit of comparison, not a recommended intake.
Compared on elemental magnesium as printed on the panel. Taurate labels frequently print only the compound weight, in which case there is no comparison basis and the product is not listed here.

Where the data comes from
Every claim links to its source. Products, prices and certification listings are read from the retailers' own stores and the certifiers' own databases, and each figure links to the record it came from, so you can check any of them.
- Where a label does not state servings per container, the figure is derived from net weight and the product page says so.
- Amazon and Walmart are not included, so “cheapest” means cheapest among the retailers we track.
- Prices go stale. Each one shows when it was last checked, and says so when it is older than the retailer allows us to cache it.
- iHerb prices cannot be refreshed automatically. iHerb has not given us access to its price data, so those prices are marked stale until they are re-read. Each retailer offer carries its own check date.

How we make money
No Buy button on this page earns us anything. The only links on the site that can are the Amazon links shown below the price comparison on some product pages, outside the comparison, and each says so beside it.
Commission will play no part in what we list, how it ranks, or which link we send you to. The Buy button points at the lowest price we have recorded even when that retailer pays us nothing.
